Beautiful place to stay. The staff were friendly and helpful and as a cool extra we managed to watch the horse run out not long after we got there. Only thing that could use some work are the showers, they could do with being updated a bit.

We stayed at Buffalo valley ranch in a nice wagon. It was a very unique experience and was close to a national park. It was next to a river that had a beautiful mountain and river view. We will stay again.

It was such a lovely stay in the wagon. Location was great, in the middle of Grand Teton and Yellowstone NP. The cafe right next to it had great food too. Overall, I’d stay here again when I return to this beautiful city!

The tipi views were so beautiful. I loved staying at a dude ranch, though I did not take any excursions. The lodge was cozy and nice place to unwind and meet fellow travelers. The on-site Cafe has friendly staff and good food. I really liked the Bison burger.

We stayed in a Tepee. It rained prior to our arrival and the beds were wet. The platform for the thin mattress was quite uncomfortable. We made the best of it and had a blast. It was unique to stay in a Tepee and the view of the Tetons was magnificent in the morning when we got up.

This is a working ranch! The wagon (where we stayed), the bathrooms, and the property are exactly what you would expect out of a working horse ranch! If you are expecting 5 star hotel experience this is not for you. If you like to camp, want an amazing view, unmatched access to the park, and love an adventure…this is for you!

Neat experience staying in the wagon but quite rustic. The shared bathrooms need attention but they’re in the process of opening more. The views were spectacular!!

It was my first dude ranch visit. I only went there to sleep the night and cannot comment on the activities. They did look like fun. The rates - which exclude linen - were on the high side.

We stayed in one of the wagons, which was a unique experience...one we would do again. Showers weren't the best, but it is a working ranch. Food at the cafe was pretty good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Whilst we were there it rained overnight, but we weren't worried about rain getting into the wagon, and in point of fact - it was so relaxing listening to the rain on the wagon's canopy. Overall, we would recommend this unique experience!

Loved staying here and can't wait to come back again. Check in and check out staff were very nice and easy to talk to. Even though I live in Wyoming, waking up to the horses being wrangled was amazing! Beautiful area to look and explore! Shared bathrooms were overall clean and maintained. Offering one more bathroom would be helpful, mornings were a bit congested but I have been to facilities that it was much worse. Overall great experience for the whole family and recommended it to friends right after we left!

The view was absolutely gorgeous and the location couldn’t have been better, but I was very disappointed by the wagon stay. The bathhouse held three bathrooms/ showers that looked like they had never been cleaned. The zipper on the wagon was broken and so much cold air got in at night. Also there was a huge truck full of horse poop that was maybe ten feet away from the wagons. The staff was very nice and every time I called I was met with such kindness.

We knew that this would be more like a camping experience so keep that in mind. It is not "glamping". Our family stayed in a wagon. It was a great experience. Basketball hoop, lodge with a pool table, a restaurant on site. The views were beautiful! The beds were comfortable. The horses coming in and going out at night were so fun to watch. My only issue was the bathrooms. Even for a campground these were really rough and we camp quite a bit. Two nights was the perfect amount for us!

Bathrooms were extremely dirty, and the pillows and blankets seemed used and unwashed. The stagecoach also looked like it had not been cleaned or swept before our stay, and the heater was malfunctioning. The location has a very nice view though.

It was a great idea to experience sleeping in a teepee or so I thought. Rustic for sure with authentic dirt floor. Our teepee had holes in it. You have to make your own bed that a step above a mat on the ground. It does look like some of the teepee are getting upgraded but not ours. For $120 plus a night i expected better. The bathroom and shower were not clean either maybe they only get cleaned once a day and it wasn't checked the rest of the day. The views however are amazing as well as getting to see the horses. I guess I was expecting something nicer. The staff was nice. Bring what you need for snacks and such the restaurant was expensive as well.

Ignore the beautiful photo and look at other reviews’ photos for a realistic sense of what you’ll find. Thus is a good option if you want to camp but don’t want to pitch a tent, don’t want to bring an air mattress, and want close toilet and running water access. It smells like manure because it is a horse ranch. We stayed in a wagon and was great for a couple with kids in bunk beds. Our wagon wouldn’t zip all the way so cold air came in during the night and we would’ve been way too cold if we hadn’t brought sleeping bags to supplement the sheets & blankets. There were two space heaters but it got down to 45 at night and with the cover openings the heaters couldn’t keep up. The showers looked gross (nasty shower curtains). Overall if it had been half the price we would have thought it at fun experience but given what they charge they should keep the zippers on wagons in working order and keep the bathrooms cleaner.

The tents we stayed in were functional at best. No pillows provided with linens which were offered for a fee. Bathrooms were closed that were nearby. No enforcement of quiet time in that area, many people were sleeping in their cars, so engines were running, loud conversations overheard . Tents were poorly maintained, and ability to close them were impossible. Altho checking staff were friendly, there could have been more attention to details and customers comfort

We stayed in a wagon which was fun but quite cold even with the heater on. The communal bathrooms could have been a bit cleaner, but the customer service there was excellent.
